DRENCI-IING-BOTTLE.

Application filed. January 26, 1914, Serial No. 814,491.

T0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ELIJAII O. Roenns, a citizen of the United States,residii'lg at 513 East 10 street, Ada, in the county ot Pontotoc, Stateof Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inDrenching-Bottles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full,clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enableothers skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use thesame.

This invention relates to drenching bot` ties for administering'medicine to animals.

The object oi the invention resides in the provision oit' a drenchingbottle which enibodies improved means t'or controlling the delivery ofliquid fromvthe interior thereo't.

A further object o't' the invention resides in the provision o't adrenching bottle which -an be utilized with Jfacility to etlect either agravity t'eed, oit' `liquid or a force ieed thereof into the mouth ot'an animal.

A still further object of the invention resides in the provision oi adrenching bottle which will be simple in construction, etlicient in useand which may be manufactured at a comparatively small cost.

iVith the above and other objects in view the invention consists in thedetails ot construction and in the arrangement and com bination of partsto be hereinafter moreI fully described and particularly pointed out inthe appended claim.

In describing the invention in detail rei:- erence will be had to the:umompanying drawings wherein like characters ol rel'crence denotecorresponding parts in the several views, and in which- Figure 1 is avertical section ot the i1n proved drenching bottle in position to be,tilled with medicine;

Fig. 2, a view similar to Fig. 1 with the bottle in delivery positionand the valve controlling the delivery of medicine there't'rom in closedposition;

Renewed November 13, 1917. Serial No. 201,875.

le'lerring to the drawings the improved drenching bottle is shown ascomprising a tubular body 19 one end oi which is reduced to 't'orm adischarge spout 11 -which is threaded exteriorly at its outer end as atl12. The outer end ol the major portion ot' the body 10 is also threadmlexteriorly as at 13. Threaded on the outer end oi. the major portion oithe body 10 is a cap 1-t having` a central dished portion 15. Projecting'from the baseA oi the (lished portion is a tubular extension 16 inwhich is slidably mounted a rod 17. This rod 17 extends through the baseol the dished portion 15 and the end thereof adjacent the cap 11i isslidably engaged in a bridge 1S carried by the cap and extending acrossthe base ot the dished portion. The end oi the rod 17 remote from thecap 1li: carries a valve 19 which seats in the inner end oi. the spout,11 and serves to prevent the flow oi" liquid lrom the interior oi thebody 10 through the spout 11. The valve 19 is normally held. seated inthe inner end ot the spout 11 by means oi a spring 20 which encirclesthe rod 17 and has one end bearing against the bridge 18 and its otherend against a flange 21 liormed on said rod. The valve 19 is adapted tobe moved trom its seat in the spout 11 to permit the passage o't liquid'from the interior oi the bottle through the spout by means oli an anglelever Q2 pivoted on the cap 1li and having one end thereoE orlced anddisposed in em bracing relation to the rod 17 inst inwardly of theflange Q1. The end ol the lever Q2 remote l'rom the rod 17 terminates ina handle Qlwhereby said lever may be conveniently rocked with the handto move the valve 19 from closed position as will be obvious.

Ti it is desired to use the bottle in the nature ot' a syringe the cap11 has slidably mounted therein a piston rod Q5 which carries a piston2G slidablc in the major portion ot the body 10. The outer end oi thepiston rod 25 terminates in a handle 27 whereby said rod may be readilyreciprocated. lWhen using the bottle as a syringe il it is desired todischarge the liquid in a line stream a nozzle 2S is threaded on theouter end of the spout 11. It it is desired to discharge the liquid inthe lorm ot a spray a. spraying nozzle 30 is threaded on the outer endof the spout 11.

`What is claimed is:-

A drenching bottle comprising a tubular body having; one end reduced toforni a dischair'e spout, n cap threaded 0n the other end of sind bodyand iornung the bottom ot the bottle, said cap having its central por-vtion depressed and extending into the body, a hollow cylindrical shieldcarried by the depressed portion of the cap and extending longitudinallyof Vthe bottle within the latter, zt rod slidable in the bottom. of saiddepressed portion and in one end of the shield, a valve carried by theinner end of the rod and adapted to seat in the inner end of the spout,a bridge embodied in said cap exteriorly of the bottle and in which therod also slides, :t fla-nge on the rod between the bridge and the outerface of the bottoni of the depressed' portion of the cap, a springencircling;` the rod and bearing against the bridge and flange tonormally hold the Valve seated, and lever operated ineens mounted on thecap for moving the Valve from its seat. n 1

In testimony whereof, I @thx my signature, in the presence of twowitnesses.
